So this will be a short personal post. I came back from South America a short time ago, and remained quite. So first I invite you to see my pictures at flickr. Photographing is a great hobby of mine, and like programming is a winner balance between technology and art. I hope you will enjoy my photographing. Second, I've started working for Sela, as a consultant, till now mainly in Team System but I'm looking forward of expanding to other directions. So stay tuned. Last note, Yesterday at the DevAcademy I really enjoyed my live-blogging and of course ,my first participation in the famous BloggerDinner...

Last lecture. Alots of words has been written about Team System for Architercts. mmm... Wait, are you kidding? Is someone really using this? in real life? (not just in The Matrix :)) I don't know, I've been lecturing about Team System for some time now, and except for a few words I don't alot the say about that. So it's really interesting to hear someone talks about it for more than five minutes. I got to say that still the DSLs which come out of the box looks promising but it's hard to tell...

Starting from the end, it was a pretty good lecture, focused and lights a somewhat dark corner in VS ide. I got to the tell truth here, I'm developing for a long time, but never in a mindset of performance on top. Maybe it's because of bad education or lazy habits, or I'm not that a good programmer. Long ago I was a developer of an ASP.net site, I remember how I tried to add instrumentation counters to our server side code. I got to tell you it didn't work so well, It simply didn't catch up...

I guess for beginners with DBdude, this was a good lecture. For me, I wanted to know more, and wanted a bit more advanced stuff to learn. I learned to use Data generators but it was fairly simple and not something I can not catch up from a simple demo. DBDude itself I find lacking, when I want to make a schema change I find myself going back to the "stone age" no designer, no intellisense, suddenly I need to remember how the syntax for primary key is written in t-sql. Why? VS has a...

Well Hello everybody, long time no see. I've been in South America and that why you didn't hear from me for so long time. But this is a long story of other occasion. Today I'm gonna post about my first two lectures I've been too. Optimizing your WPF application / Tamir. Well the lecture was very advanced and that is a good thing, I'm really sick of spinning buttons (Yes even me!). And Tamir really got a good lessons learned to teach us. The feeling I had during was why nobody...
